Tesla Door Handles Of Different Models: What Are The Differences?
It is not unusual for different models of automobiles produced by one manufacturer to have distinct styles of door handles. The Roadster, Model X, Model S, and Model 3 each has different door handles.
Model X (the highest-priced model) has auto present doors, not only handles. As the driver exits or approaches, the doorway will auto open and shut. You can also push the handle and the door will automatically open. Falcon wing doors are double-hinged opening first, then out and may open with just 30cm of unwanted clearance. Every door has capacitive, inductive, and sonar detectors to track the environment and prevent contact with barriers around the vehicle.
Model S (less expensive than Model X) has concealed door handles that auto present and are illuminated. Yep, it is cool how they pop, how they are illuminated, and the way in which they retract to be sleek looking and aerodynamic, but that comes at the expense of complexity.
Model 3 (the least expensive) is the simplest, essentially a teeter-totter. Push in, then grab the handle, can’t get any easier and it also sits flush into the car when not being used. It does not have any motors, it isn’t illuminated, it only gets the job done.
Frankly, they are all good with their own pros and cons. Model 3 door handles are a sensible compromise to receive concealed door handle with less complexity and price. Yet, who wouldn’t like the real techie and automated door opening brought by technology marvels of Model X and Model S doors and handles?
